Has anybody experienced milk leaking out the bottom of their breastshields from improper support?

Not at all. The only leaks I get is when I am removing the bra and cups, sometimes milk drips then but that can't be helped. This bra is perfect :)

Hello Bella. I have not faced any such problem till now. Only if you are carrying baby bare chest this should be your concern. Otherwise the product is absolutely good.

I have found mine to be secured, especially with the two smaller containers in a larger one. I have even had cereal and milk and not hade the milk leak everywhere.

I breastfeed and these were the best bottles we used after I stopped. The worst part I think; is that they leak if you do not screw the lid on super tight; but it is worth it; because she has no gas. I would recommend these bottles to friends and family.

Mine had two bottles, two nipples, and two caps, but I never used them. The measurements on the side of the bottle were wrong and the nipples had a strange stickiness to them. Plus, They look very cheap, so I simply poured the milk into a different container.

First check to see that the valve will move up and down. I lube the rubber seal with a water based lube at the base, put it in place (may need to rotate a bit), hold it while attaching the pump, then pump. If the seal seals, and the valve releases it will work promptly. If not, check the valve first, and rotate the clear suction cup a tad to improve the seal. When you have sucked your breasts a reasonable amount you can take the pump off and repeat on the other breast. Should be fine and I can usually have my breasts in there 2-3 hours.

My baby couldn't latch at the hospital (flat nipples) and I was pressured to give her formula. I had to send someone to get a nipple shield from the hospital. Yes, it's much better if you can nurse right away but if it you have an issue like I did you will feel good to have a solution at hand.

You have the nipple ring on too tight. Our Comotomo bottles do that occasionally and all I need to do is loosen it up a tad:)

I have never had a back flow issue. It is a hospital grade pump so it has a membrane/barrier between the tubing and the milk that is pumped so you should never get milk in the tubing.

I wouldn't recommend putting breast milk in them. I don't think they'll seal well enough

I tried like crazy to get my little guy to latch. I had to use the shield to even make it work. I would try to pump and then get him to latch, and no such luck. I was never able to wean him off it. :( it only lasted three months though I ended up drying up, I don't think it was caused by the shield. I also found that the Medela therashells helped draw mine out some, wear them between feedings they also helped lots! Good luck!

No. I am a 38 DD typically. So of course breast feeding enlarged them. This pump was horrible & I ended up paying for a different one. I now have medela & it works so much better. W this I got 1 oz from both sides. Medela- 7-10 oz both sides.

I have not. My daughter likes her milk warm, so I often microwave the bottom portion of the cup and put the lid on after. I've not experienced any issue with the suction in these instances.

you probably dont need this anwer by now, took me a while to find this in my email, you know having a newborn and all, lol. but yes it does, one of my nipples is inverted and it works just fine. the only problem i had with these was overfilling them, and getting them open without spilling any milk

Though I have never encountered the tear problem you mention, if I did I would buy CLEAR FLEXSEAL , and buy DOUBLE SIDE EASY RELEASE DRAFTING TAPE, tape off the area about the tear 1" on all edges, protect the rest of the surfaces with news paper cutout to limit overspray, then spray 3 or 4 very light coats over the repair area allowing the full cure time between coats. I have given up on breast forms because my goal was to have breasts that give me the feeling of natural breasts. All of the glues do not work. and damage the lining. I have finally grown my own Breasts. I was a 40 AA, and now I am a 40 D looking to take the cup size as far as I can before I go the next step to reduce belly fat so I will have both breasts and a waist.
